As Hor­nets play­ers gath­ered at the Alario Cen­ter on Thurs­day morn­ing, team pres­i­dent Hugh Weber met with cap­tains Chris Paul and David West to inform them that Coach Byron Scott was fired and his replace­ment would be Gen­eral Man­ager Jeff Bower.

Paul was not happy with the deci­sion, and he was nott pleased with being caught off guard by the announcement.

He said New Orleans should have sought his and West’s input before the deci­sion was finalized.
